The strength of Penn State's five-year Bachelor of Architecture program is that it prepares students to practice architecture. This has always been a traditional focus of the Penn State Stuckeman School and we reaffirm our commitment to architectural practice in the broadest sense of the term.
Our strong traditions of drawing, model-making, community outreach/service learning, and hands-on construction prepare our students to both explore non-traditional means of building delivery (such as design-build and digital fabrication) and to practice more conventionally, from behind a desk and a computer screen, armed with an intimate knowledge of materials and building processes.
